Like clockwork, Walker fails to move the runner over, and the next hitter reaches base.

It was actually Jones, which is also not surprising.

lol, not sure why I thought it was Walker. "Insert hitter x".

[shafnutz05]

Man, I thought that was a Walkerbomb off the bat.

[TheGhostofGoulet]

It's easy to assume when a hitter fails with a runner on base, it's Walker.

The Alternate Universe Pirates would have gotten a run there. Where's Prof. Arturo when you need him?

If hurdle had any nuggets, Brandon Phillips would have to come up to bat with a football helmet on for the duration.

After his 2012 MVP winning season it was only fair.

Welp.

[canaan]

He knocked the cover off of that one

I flipped the channel for a second when it went to the Top of the 5th, and I turn it back and it's already the middle?

[Rocco]

The Pirates are just doing their normal routine of blowing game 1 of a 4 game series.

Yes, Liriano may have met or exceeded his quota for runs if he expects to get a no-decision tonight.

Getting shut out by the Reds is like getting kicked in the nuts repeatedly.

I've hated the Reds since 1970.

Gloves are optional.

Attaboy martin

[Rocco]

Tie game. Martin with the base hit, Bruce with the slapstick defense.

[NashvilleCat]

Funky finish to that slide. But there are no style points as Coach Tomlin would say and he didn't seem to hurt himself.

Nuts are safe tonight

[Rocco]

Blimpo had his clutch hit yesterday, so he's taking a hiatus from hitting today.

[NashvilleCat]

Phillips leads off - payback time.

[meow]

Phillips due up this inning. Commence operation bean ball to squash.
